Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.67 ounces of egg yolks
- Convert ounces to grams: 17.67 × 28.35 = 500.94g
- 1 cup of egg yolks = 253g
- 500.94g ÷ 253g/cup = 1.98 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Carton egg whites and yolks have very consistent density, making them easier to measure by volume than freshly separated eggs. If your recipe calls for a specific gram amount, carton products are the most predictable.
